A LinkedIn headshot that reads "shipping engineer"
LinkedIn is the engineer's resume. Your headshot needs to read modern and credible at thumbnail size — the kind of person a tech recruiter would actually message.
HeadshotCam takes one selfie and gives you a LinkedIn-engineer-ready portrait. Pick lead-dev, clean-modern, or polished-pro styles, neutral background, and you have a photo that fits both staff-level and senior IC roles.

Sized for the linkedin crop
Outputs land at the dimensions and crop the platform expects — no awkward zoom, no clipped chin.
Edit with words

Tips
- 1 Skip the suit. Open collar, knit, or soft blazer reads more credible for engineering.
- 2 Use a neutral grey or muted blue background. Anything busy distracts at thumbnail size.
- 3 Closed-mouth smile reads "calm operator" — the engineer-leadership default.
- 4 Match the photo on GitHub. Recruiters cross-check; matching photos build trust.
FAQs
Will it pass on linkedin?
Yes. The output is a realistic likeness of you, not a cartoon or filter. Pick a Foundations or Corporate style and the photo reads as a normal studio shoot.
Can I keep my face exactly the same?
Yes — your face, hair, and skin tone stay locked. Only clothing, lighting, and background change.
How fast is generation?
Most headshots are ready in 5 to 15 seconds. You can iterate, then "Edit with words" for tweaks, all in under a minute.
